Heart Attack Support Group
Heart attack is a serious, sudden heart condition usually characterized by varying degrees of chest pain or discomfort, weakness, sweating, nausea, vomiting, and arrhythmias, sometimes causing loss of consciousness. It occurs when the blood supply to a part of the heart is interrupted, causing death and scarring of the local heart tissue.
I found out from the Nurse Practicioner at my Primary Dr. Appt. on the 9th of May from an ecg/ekg that the funny looking little downward V's were caused by Ischemia. That is when you don't get enough oxygen in your fresh blood supply that leaves your hear. I was wondering why I fatigue so easy; have trouble remembering; sometimes feel weak in the legs; arms. Upon standing or getting out of bed and feel lightheaded.
I am being scheduled for an echocardiogram; Stress Test, and appt. with a cardiologist. Sure hope they can do some magic on me as I would like to be able to work again in the near future.

the battery of tests because I figure if something is wrong they will find
it. I had a stress test recently and pushed myself beyond anything I would do in a normal workout . I thought "if something bad is going to happen , this is the best place for it ".
